The ice machine in the refrigerator's freezer groans when making ice cubes like it's being asked to do something beyond its capacity. Unlike the refrigerator's ice machine, the lake's ice maker dons its perfect gym suit in winter. Not a problem to boom, creak, shake the house at night, as it pushes against itself to make more room for its frozen bulging muscles.
The measurements of the ice runway average 9 inches with a range of 7.5 to 10 inches. Plenty, I'm told, to hold an airplane weighing almost a ton. But I am frozen to the sofa reading a book and drinking a cuppa, with a sense of ease here that is not felt in the airplane on skis on ice that's 9 inches thick. Maybe another day.
Looks good for ice skiing. Good muscle building, balance and getting up from a fall practice. Wear a life vest.
